Correct answer: A. Small square (tilted) at top centre; half-shaded circle, shaded up-right at top right; half-shaded plus sign, shaded down-right at top left

  • A. Small square (tilted) at top centre; half-shaded circle, shaded up-right at top right; half-shaded plus sign, shaded down-right at top left
  • B. Small square (tilted) at bottom centre; half-shaded circle, shaded down-right at bottom right; half-shaded plus sign, shaded up-right at bottom left
  • C. Small square (tilted) at top centre; half-shaded circle, shaded up-left at top left; half-shaded plus sign, shaded down-left at top right
  • D. Small square (tilted) at bottom centre; half-shaded circle, shaded down-left at bottom left; half-shaded plus sign, shaded up-left at bottom right

Explanation

A mirror standing beside the figure swaps left and right: every element moves to the opposite side, and anything that points or is shaded to the right now points or is shaded to the left. Top and bottom stay where they are. Option A is the only one where every element has changed this way. B is the figure turned upside down, which swaps top and bottom as well. C is the figure itself, unreflected. D is the water image (top and bottom swapped), not the mirror image.
